Imagine being able to make the world a better place while sipping your favorite coffee. With the new Coffee break projects With lets, this is now possible! Not everyone always has the time to work on a half-day or full-day project such as a Social Day Volunteer, but still we at lets want to inspire you to do good things anyway. Often it's just small routines that need to be changed briefly or little things that you simply never thought about before. Small but significant contributions can be made in a very short period of time. From a simple break to a real world improver — it couldn't be easier.
